FWAHC Newsletter

January 2001

PAGE 6

Personally, I can't wait for Spring to see some of the more rare birds in the club come out and fly. At least 19 members own two or more different marques of auto, and a dozen or so members own more than one auto of the same marque. The grand total is a ball park 110 cars! That is pretty darn good any way you look at it. It needs to be noted that Frank Grover, Ben Anderson, and Jim Stork own more cars than they reported, but maybe even they don't know what they have in their garage on a given day.

Well, that's us! We are what we are! Birds of a feather! Misery loves company! Great minds...! A fool and his money...! We are all guilty as charged. Here's hoping the combination of British cars, good friends, good food, and good fun, keeps Flatwater alive and well in 2001.

Editor's Request

What is your favorite British car? We would like to do a series on our members and their favorite car as a monthly feature of the FWAHC Newsletter. Please send us a picture of your favorite car with a story telling of how and when you obtained it, what you like about it and any special features it may have. Thank you for helping all of us in the club get to know each other a bit better.

DUES ARE DUE

John Ulrich - Friendly Membership Chair

Dues for both local and national members are due January 1 for calender year 2001. If you are a national member, you should have received a renewal notice directly from the A-HCA. If you are a local member you will find a membership form printed in both last month's and this month's Flatwater Newsletter. National members should return BOTH forms with a check, and local members should return the Flatwater form with a check. If you read the "Who We Are" article in this month's newsletter, I hope you will understand the need for a little more structure. We have become a fairly large organization. Here is my "please" list:

1. Please fill out the forms in full and MAIL THEM TO ME. I may know some of you like brothers, but I'm sure I haven't met everyone in the club. Please update information on the forms. Accuracy is good.
2. National members must be prompt. Edie Anderson is watching! Local members must be prompt. I am watching!
3. Please use the correct forms. When I get three fives and a name on a napkin from "fish" I promise to screw up your membership.
4. Please send a check made out to Flatwater. Many times checks have been our only trace of a lost membership.
5. Please don't give anything to Danielson or Stork. They may go to Europe or Brazil at any time, and they have enough trouble getting their own membership in.

If you have any questions please call me at 402-421-9252. You may also e-mail me at julrich@lps.org. If you leave a message on the machine, or with my wife, or college-age daughter home on break, I also promise to screw up your membership.
